The fall of communism, Rothschild,

,..Mr Kushner is closely intertwined with his father-in-law’s administration and has been a key shadow mediator in peace talks in the Middle East and Ukraine — but is not a government employee.

This technicality has allowed him to continue running his highly profitable private equity firm, Affinity Partners, where, with the backing of Saudi sovereign wealth, he pours billions of dollars into Israeli tech and European real estate...

And drug (and let's be honest, probably human-) trafficking real estate magnates...

You can't make up this kind of story.
